The Video of a Tampa Groundskeeper Dancing His Socks Off Will Make You Smile
Need a break from all the heavy political coverage? Can’t watch another political speech? Just need to smile? You’re in luck! Below is video captured during a Tampa Bay Rays baseball game of a groundskeeper busting a move between innings. But that doesn’t really do it justice: this guy was dancing for his life and didn’t care who saw it (or maybe cared a lot):
If that dance looks familiar, it’s because it’s eerily similar to the one made famous on the Will Smith comedy “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” In the show, character Carlton Banks busted his own moves that simply became knows as “The Carlton.” Compare below:
Now back to the political stories.

In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us.

Posted on September 5, 2012 at 3:55pmI am as uptight as anyone….but some of you with no sense of humor are messed up. Just because we are political, social, economic and moral conservatives does not mean we are incapable of having fun or experiencing joy….quite the opposite; in the Bible John 8:36 says, So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

Posted on September 5, 2012 at 11:53amAs long as his salary is not taxpayer paid, I don’t care what he does.
But in Tampa, it seems taxpayers get stuck with the bill of most sporting events because the Sheeple here are idiots and vote for it.

Posted on September 5, 2012 at 2:27pmI got nothing, except these lyrics delivered by Tom Jones while performing a cover of the Prince song ‘Kiss’: “Think I better dance now!”

hi
Posted on September 5, 2012 at 9:51amI found some old CD’s from the late 80′s when I was purging stuff from closets yesterday. I played them loudly in my car and danced when there were no other cars around. I decided to do more of that than listening to the depressing news in the car from now on!! I guess I need to invest in illegal tinted windows first.

Posted on September 5, 2012 at 12:37pmI agree with the ranger, I needed a smile, but couldn’t find it. People acting stupid doesn’t make me smile.
This is worthy of one of the top news sites in the country???????
